James Meehan, final child of Annie Harris and Michael Meehan.

James Meehan was born in c. 1913 at Yarrawonga to 45 year old Annie Harris and her husband Michael Meehan. His schooling would have been split between Yarrawonga and Thornbury as his family moved to the latter in the early twenties.
Tragically, both James and his brother William contracted the disease tuberculosis and both died in the same year- James in January 1931 aged 17 and William in October on his 23rd birthday.
Above is a photograph of the Meehan grave in Fawkner Cemetery. Buried there are brothers James and William, and their parents Michael and Annie.
